Wireless operators professional and
'amateur on one side of the globe prob
ably had their instruments at their ears
straining tonight to catch th ofalnt
buzzes as the powerful apparatus sput

the Atlantic coast naval stations.
Down In theaoundproof operating room,
wlndowleas and protected by 'double doors,
some of the navy's most experienced oper
ators, dlreoted by Ltoutenant Woodworth,
sent outtho first flashes.
"N-A-X N-A-X," the call for Colon,

through theether. At Intervals the instru

The radius of the new plant will bo
about 3,000 miles when it Is In working
order. This range, probably the acme
of wireless operations, will bo attained

then no longor will be a wilderness for

Three huge stool towers on the brow
of a hill overlooking tho Potomac and
dwarfing the Washington monument hold
the aerial which fling off the messages
to the ether. In tho construction, skilled
iron workers who had braved death on
many a skyscrapor declined to work at
such dizzy heights. One tower Is 6S0

and that Is 200 feet above the rlvef. Tho
others measure 450 feet.

TARIFF REFORM TRIED ONCE
After Second Kleollon of t'levelnnd
l'roaneot of Heiersal of roller
of Protection Precipitated
Depression In lluslnesx.
AVASHINQTON, Oct .-President
Taft today made public a statement In
which he declared that the "Four years
of depression whloh followed the seconi
eleotion of President Cleveland, were duo
to tho promlao of tariff reform and tlio
democratic changes in tho tariff thtt
followed." The president said that th
Issue before the voters Is clear "On the
one hand prosperity and, real progress,
on the other a leap In the dark."
"Tho American people," he continued,
"Have mora than once surprised tluw
who thought the pooplo were being suc
cessfully fooled, and I believe that a
similar surprise awaits our opponents ou
the coming Cth of Novcmbor.
Tho statement In full follows:
"In view of errouneous statements re
garding tho causes of tho four years of
depression which followed tho second
election of President Cloveland It may bo
well to recall the facts. In his fortrul
letter of acceptance, September 2d, lSDi,
Mr. Clueveland emphasised tho need of
'tariff reform' and mads It the leading
Issue between the parties. 'Tariff re
form is still our purpose,' ho said',
'though we. opposo the theory that tariff
laws may bo passed having for their ob
ject tho granting of discriminating and
unfair governmental aid to private ven
tures, we wage no exterminating war
against Amorican Interests.' This has a
familiar sound today, s&vo that, instead
of 'tariff reform,' tho democratic slogan
now la 'A tariff for revenue only.' Ao
aordlng to the Daitimoro platform, tha
tariff Is not merely to bo reformed, but
the principle of protecting tho Amorican
Industry is to be oxcisod, root and
branoh. On that platform Governor Wil
son stands.
Storm Sternal liaised.
"To go back to Mr. Cleveland's second
term, the proof from his own writings
and utterances is that he was elected on
the issue of Tariff reform.' It Is also
a fact of history that Immediately upon
his eleotion capital and industry took
alarm, enterprise beoamo paralysed and
business disorganized. The argument
has been advanced that these deplorable
conditions could not have been due to
Impending 'tariff reform' because they
arose nearly two years before tho enact
ment of tho Wilson tariff bllL It should
bd unnecessary to say that when there
are signs of a oyulono the rational man
does not wait for the storm to hit his
house, before gotttng into tho oyolona
collar. The Wilson bill was in sight
above the horizon on the miming after
the November election -of 1832 and capital
and Industry began their 'start for th
cellar, Just as. I fear, they will take to
shelter again, should tho Baltimore plat
form of A tariff for revenue only bo
approved by ths Amerlccn people on,
November C. '
"Mr. Clevoland was undoubtedly sincere
in his belief that 'Tho alarming and ex-

Police Powers of
Regular Army in
Texas Enlarged
WASHINGTON, Oct 28.-Offlo!als here
today dented that there was any purpose
on the part of President Taft to declare
martial law over any part of Texas as
jan Incident to tho continuance of the rev
olution In Mexico.
It has, however, boon found necessary
to enlarge tho police powers of the regu
lar army patrolling tho borders. This
applies not only to tho mere arrest of
armed rebols crossing tho line to escape
pursuit, but also to their, detention. Seri
ous embarrassment to the offloers charged
with tho uxocutlon of tho neutrality laws
has followed tho discharge by state ju
dicial officers under habeas corpus of
fugitives held by tho army and officials
of the Department of Justice, and this
difficulty Is to bo met by guarding those
refugees as military prisoners beyond tne
reach of 'state authorities.
Five officers of Orozoo's staff capturod
In Texas and held by soldiers were re
leased under writs of habeas corpus, al
though their rearrest was ordered from
Washington as soon as news of this ac
tion reached here.
Major Aslarto and Colonel Do La Funte
aro the only ones who can be found, and
they will bo 'hold under seotlon 14 of the
neutrality act passed at tho last session
of congress under "detention" rather than
"interned," which might bo regarded as
a recognition of the belligerency of the
rebels.

that, unless there is decided change In
